A millionaire couple reportedly posed as cleaners before flying 1,000 miles to skip the coronavirus vaccine queue. Casino mogul Rodney Baker, 55, and his 32-year-old wife, Ekaterina Baker, allegedly flew on a private plane to a community in Yukon where the Moderna jab was being delivered.
They were stopped on their return to Vancouver, Canada, by police officers who had been tipped off by suspicious clinic staff, who were confused at their request for a lift to the airport.
The couple were slapped with two charges each under Yukon’s Civil Emergency Measures Act, one for failing to self-isolate and the other for failing to follow a travel declaration on January 21.
